AGAP9
Description
The AGAP9 gene plays a crucial role in various cellular functions. It encodes a protein involved in DNA replication, cell cycle regulation, and DNA repair, ultimately influencing cell growth and proliferation. AGAP9‘s role extends beyond these core functions, impacting processes like immune system regulation and neuronal development. Mutations in AGAP9 have been linked to specific diseases, emphasizing its importance in maintaining overall health.
Associated Diseases
- Cancer (e.g., leukemia, lymphoma, and breast cancer)
- Neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., autism spectrum disorder)
- Immune system disorders (e.g., autoimmune diseases)
Did you know?
AGAP9‘s involvement in DNA repair suggests a potential role in aging and age-related diseases.
